Chapter 857: The Second Great Gathering (I)
The brightly lit hall was full of people, and the same banquet was still held in the same place, but it was a grander scene than the first banquet, with more elaborate tableware and dishes, and this time the number of participants was larger, and the accompaniment of the band at least made the huge banquet hall a little more deserted than the first one, this time there was a more lively atmosphere.

Everyone in the city of Ulduar was in attendance!
Hidden in the shadows, Arin watched all this with relief, except for Lelouch who was far away in the Free City and Elcid who went to find the Children of the Stars, etc., even the Flying Shadow and Heathcliff, who were on the front line of the Misty Forest, returned to Ulduar City to participate in the banquet, and originally wanted to let Detzel and Miria in the Kingdom of Saxony also return, but the attack on the Kingdom of Belrama by demons made the Holy Capital also move frequently, causing the two of them to have a lot of work for a while and could not return.
But it's not bad.,Mingxue and Nagisa and others who live in the mansion are also rare to change into a dress and enjoy the food with great interest.,The usually frail Kiriyama Ai has improved a lot after this period of recuperation.,Now I'm also attending the banquet accompanied by Fujisawa Ako.,And at this time Yayi was sitting at a dining table and was taken care of by several girls.,The task of getting food and drinks was almost also arranged by Mingxue and Nagisa.,And the table is full of all kinds of food.,Grilled just right steakγ Golden baked prawns, puff pastry soup, bacon and vegetable rolls, pizzas in a variety of flavors, colorful sushi and desserts, and grilled chicken thighs.
"Mingxue, we can't eat so much, let's take a little less so as not to waste it. Fujisawa Ako said after sending a bowl of porridge made of millet to Yayi.
Mingxue, who was holding two cups of strawberry sundae ice cream in her hand, smiled embarrassedly: "Ahhh~ I'm sorry! Just looking at so many delicious foods on the table, I want to taste each of them." β
As high school students, Nayuki and Nagisa have most of the habits of girls of this age.,It's like when enjoying a buffet.,The two of them prefer to take food than eat.,Just like a woman who loves to go to a store, she wants to see everything.,I want to take everything.,Sometimes it's more comfortable to watch others eat than to eat yourself.γ
"I also took the pudding, there is a big piece, you can eat as much as you want today. Not to be outdone, Nagisa put down the two plates of pudding poured with delicious syrup, and then sat down and began to enjoy the meal.
"What about Mom, why didn't I see them?"
Nagisa Furukawa, who was seated, looked around and noticed that there was no shadow of her mother on the table.
"Nagisa's mom and my mom both helped out backstage, and this cup of sundae jam was handmade by my mom. Mingxue said with a smile and sent a cup of sundae to Nagisa by the way: "Taste it, it's delicious, um~ Although Mom's special jam is a bit ββ, please rest assured, the strawberry jam is definitely the best that Mom makes." β
Although he has the assurance of famous snow, Furukawa Nagisa still can't help but beat faster when he hears that the jam is made by Aunt Akiko, who is always smiling, no way, now most people in the entire city are already afraid of Aunt Akiko's jam, just like the bread made by his mother, the large-scale food poisoning incident that caused Ulduar City seems to be still vivid, when the bread and jam of the two are added together, even a white dragon thinks that its power and the negative attributes it brings are enough for the dragon with extremely high resistance to be exemptγ
Maybe you can use these two things as weapons for the final battleββ
Once, even Yarin half-jokingly made this evaluation of the dark cuisine of the two wives.,And for this evaluation.,As the daughter of the party, whether it's Nagisa Furukawa or Nayuki Mizuse, they're ashamed and embarrassed.γ
"Sister Yayi, do you want to eat a little?"
"Thank you Mingxue, my body has just recovered, and now it's not suitable to eat cold food. β
Looking at the two girls who are slightly younger than themselves, Kiriyama Ai is also very gratifying, although I will still miss my mother and sister in another world for such a long time, but I am not lonely here, except for Miss Fujisawa Ako who accompanies me all the time, several girls who live together are very warm and kind, and I can still feel the warmth of being at home here, and the most important thing is that the disease that has been gradually cured has made me see the hope of continuing to live.
While the girls were talking and laughing, a girl with blonde hair also came over: "Can you fight the table here?"
"Of course, please be seated. β
Although there are too many vacant seats in the banquet hall, Nagisa and Mingxue and others don't mind others sharing the table, on the contrary, because there are too many vacant seats, the more people sit at their table, the more lively it is, otherwise it is boring to sit there alone and eat alone, for example, the hedgehog-headed boy who is eating a lot of food dozens of meters away opposite, the administrator Ge Mu who always gives people a meticulous look in the library, but compared to the hedgehog-headed boy who sits alone, there is a kind white-haired middle-aged man sitting next to the manager Ge Mu, and the two seem to have some common topics to discussγ
The blonde girl with the plate sat down before she smiled and introduced herself, "Winley Lockbell, it's a pleasure to meet you." β
"Hello Wen Li, my name is Nagisa Furukawa. β
"Minase Nayuki, it's a pleasure to meet you. β
Several girls also introduced themselves to each other, and Wen Li gestured with her fingers to a table behind her that was about seven or eight positions away from here and said, "I'm sorry, the table I sat at before was too noisy, so I had to change you here, everyone is a girl and it feels good to sit together." β
Following Wen Li's gesture, the eyes of several girls fell on the table, and it seemed that there were only three people seated, and two of the boys, who were a little shorter, seemed to be having some quarrels.
Usually like this kind of casual buffet dinner, for Wen Li, she should generally sit with her Aoki Bamboo Horse and chat about the warmth of the past, and by the way, discuss topics such as a better future, but because of the insertion of an uninvited guest, Wen Li had to endure it for a few more minutes before raising her hand to surrender and choose to change positions, after all, two little beans, and the same little beans with super high self-esteem, when it comes to height, the degree of verbose can be described as abhorrent.
On the dining table, Edward was looking at the boy in front of him who was also a hedgehog with an undisguised murderous aura, looking a little older than himself and Al, and he looked like a street gangster, looking a little taller than himself.
"You guy, can't you look good? Edward, who was holding a knife and fork, couldn't stand it and slammed his arm on the table.
Edward swears to the sky that he was with his brother and Wen Li, reminiscing about some interesting memories of the past and enjoying delicious food (Al is only responsible for taking the food and not eating), but this guy named Flying Shadow deliberately squeezed into his table, and obviously came for his height, because this hedgehog head, who was only a few centimeters taller than himself, always casually combed his hair when eating, and although he was a facial paralysis, there was always a hint of mockery in his eyes.
If it weren't for the fact that this was a banquet hall, Edward would have wanted to use alchemy to make a fist and send him directly to heaven.
However, compared to the other party's almost naked-naked eyes of contempt, what made Edward most unhappy was the terrible eating appearance of the hedgehog head in front of him, how to say it! It was almost like a refugee from somewhere, as if he had never eaten anything good, looking at the dozens of empty plates piled up beside him, Edward believed that he had eaten at least ten kilograms of food, and he did not know where he had loaded it, and his eating appearance was even more unsightly, holding a knife and fork and sending the whole steak into his mouth without cutting it, and two pieces at the same time, and now he was chewing with his mouth puffed out.
As for holding a large piece of roasted ribs that should have been cut by the attendant with a knife with a greasy hand, then nibbling on watermelon, and then pouring a large glass of milky white ββ um~ milky white milk into his mouth like a reckless man drinking, and then unceremoniously wiped his mouth directly with his hands. Edward thought that his eating appearance had been regarded as bad by Wen Li, but compared to the way the hedgehog head in front of him seemed to be a primitive man, he could be regarded as a civilized person.
"I'm going to get some of this steak for me, and I'm pouring more sauce on top, and I'm getting some more of the shells from the same one too. Ignoring Edward's gaze, Flying Shadow said to Alphonse on the side.
"Okay Brother Feiying, do you still need fruit?"
"It's wrong to call it a little fruit called dragon fruit, so help me get some." β
Alphonse on the side didn't get angry like his brother, but ran to help Feiying get food like a little henchman behind the child queen, and didn't seem to have the slightest sense of earning to be called by others as free labor.
Edward was not happy, his younger brother was naturally unhappy to be called an elder brother casually, even if it was his privilege to call Arna: "Hey, Al, why do you listen to him, and you little dwarf don't ignore me there." β
In other words, Feiying, who is usually also sensitive to the word short, will definitely get angry, but at this moment, Feiying is uncharacteristically not angry: "Don't let me be 2 cm shorter, the guy is not qualified to speak." β
"Bastard, guy who is only 2 centimeters taller than me, what right do you have to be proud in front of me. β
"Taller than you!"
With just three words, Edward felt like he had been completely sunk.
"You did it yourself!" Edward closed his hands, and the blue light appeared slightly on the palms of his hands, and it looked as if he was about to launch the refining.
It's just that the flying shadow is faster, and the sword that exudes a strange aura has been unsheathed and has been put on Edward's neck with lightning speed: "It's too slow." β
Edward, who was frozen all over, couldn't help but shudder, and even the refining couldn't help but be interrupted.
"I said you two little ghosts, don't give me a bright weapon that spoils the scenery at this time!"
And just as the two confronted each other, a large hand grabbed Flying Shadow's hand like an iron tong, and Edward couldn't help but look over and find that it was Manigot. (To be continued.) )
